Subdivision into environments and rooms
Write the name of the rooms on the building’s floor plan. For exam-
ple: kitchen, living room, stairway, entrance, garage, basement, bed-
room, Antonio’s bedroom. This will be helpful to assign a name and
specific location to the elements within the home and manage their
installation and use more speedily. For example, it will enable the de-
tectors to send the following message: window open in the kitchen.
Subdivision of the environment into “areas”
During the programming phase, the detectors can be grouped into
6 different AREAS: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 (the names of the areas can be
personalised when programming the control unit). In this way, when
using the system the alarm can be enabled fully or partially, in order
to protect the environment in a differentiated manner. In assigning
the detectors to a same group it is important to assess the type of
building and personal preferences regarding use of the spaces. It is
also possible to programme all the devices in a single AREA. All the
technical sensors – for example, the flooding and particulate sensors
(always active) – cannot be disabled and do not have to be assigned
to a specific area.
Example of “perimeter” subdivision (Fig. 2):
AREA 1 = Outdoor volumetric detectors to protect the garden (series
MNDT, etc.)
AREA 2 = Proximity perimeter volumetric detectors for doors and
windows, with “curtain”-effect lens (series MNCPIR, etc.)
AREA 3 = Door and window opening detectors (MNMC)
AREA 4 = Indoor volumetric detectors for the garage (series MNPIR,
etc.)
AREA 5 = Volumetric detectors for the living room (series MNPIR, etc.)
AREA 6 = Volumetric detectors for the bedrooms (series MNPIR, etc.)
Advantages:
allows for moving freely inside the home, monitoring
the perimeter against possible break-ins (areas 5 and 6 disabled;
areas 1, 2, 3 and 4 enabled). This solution ensures progressive pro-
tection by diffusing voice messages through sirens to ward off break-
in attempts in the outdoor area, subsequently activating the siren at
full power and making phone calls in case of attempted break-ins
involving the inner areas.
Example of “block” subdivision (Fig. 3):
Area 1 = Garden detectors
Area 2 = Garage detectors
Area 3 = Room 1 detectors
Area 4 = Room 2 detectors
Area 5 = Room 3 detectors
Area 6 = Room 4 detectors
Advantages:
allows for personalising the alarm and voice message
enabling based on the rooms to be protected. Different access pri-
orities can be assigned based on the intended use of the rooms, for
example: outdoor area, warehouse, office, showroom.
Each detector in the system must belong to one or two of the des-
ignated sub-sets. Flooding and smoke detectors are the exception,
as they must ensure 24 h protection even when the alarm is disabled
and people are present inside the home. As a result, they belong to
a specific function: “TECHNICAL ALARMS”.
Subdivision into environments and areas
Wi-Fi connection
If the house has a Wi-Fi connection, the system can be connected
in Client mode. The control unit can also function without a Wi-Fi
connection, in Access Point mode, as it can be controlled via smart-
phone, tablet and PC in the WLAN area alone. If the disable Wi-Fi
option is selected (not available on the MNCUC model), the control
unit will only communicate via GSM or PSTN with the relevant ac-
cessory modules.
For connection in the Client mode, keep on hand the name and
password of the Wi-Fi network to which the control unit must be
connected.
System name
To connect the installation to the remote control system, an identifi-
cation name must be assigned to the installation (e.g Rossi Home,
Rossi Seaside Home, Rossi Office); this name will be requested
when recording voice messages and appears in communications
via apps, SMS, voice messages and for security agencies. If one or
more installations are connected to the same app, it is important to
use a different name that specifically identifies the home.
